Christina Ricci's Givenchy Wedding Dress: See An Exclusive Photo!

The first thing we thought when we heard Christina Ricci married James Heerdegen: We can’t wait to see her dress. And the wait was worth it. The actress shared an exclusive intimate photo with PEOPLE of her Givenchy haute couture gown.

Ricci, 33, did not go the traditional princess route (we knew she wouldn’t), selecting a white silk tulle design with Chantilly lace and satin piping. The dress is also covered in micro pearl embroidery and features a very unique detail: short lace sleeves with cutouts at the shoulders. Not pictured: her white tulle veil, which had a matching Chantilly lace appliqué. (You can see a view of that — and the gown’s beautiful train — in another photo she Tweeted, below!)

The star and longtime boyfriend Heerdegen said “I do” in an intimate New York ceremony Saturday night before their family and friends. The nuptials took place at Manhattan’s Harold Pratt House & Peterson Hall.

“Getting to say ‘fiancé’ instead of ‘boyfriend’ is my favorite thing,” about being engaged, the actress told PEOPLE in July. “I can’t wait for ‘husband.'”

Just stunning! The dress was gorgeous and she made a breathtaking bride.

Ahh, I just watched Casper yesterday, this reminds me of the scene where she comes down the stairs in the lace white dress!! Love it :D

Beautiful, classic dress. I don’t care for the arm warmers though. Still, a thousand times better than the strapless gowns so many brides wear these days.

The picture in my head was prettier but she is beautiful.

She really looks SO elegant – that’s refreshing. While I wear “cold shoulder sleeves” on top, not loving it on a wedding dress. But that being said, she looks gorgeous.

The dress looked much better with the veil on. Did she really think posing in front of a window where the view was of rooftop vents was a good idea? Apparently, but I don’t.

Misty

It suits her. She looks elegant and beautiful.

Stunning! Love the departure from the traditional look. The sleeves, the neckline; just beautiful & elegant. Would love to be able to see the detail a little better but no doubt it’s intricate. Love, Love.

Gorgeous! I like the fact that some brides are stepping it up and moving away from the SAME OLD STYLE of the strapless gown…that is such a tired, overdone look. She looks beautiful, elegant and modest which is SO refreshing!

Teyha

Stunning. I love the departure from the traditional look. The neckline, the sleeves. Would love to have a closer view of the details of the dress but no doubt it’s very intricate work. Love, Love.

Sorry, but that dress is not beautiful at all. The sleeves are awful. She is a beautiful woman and would have looked much more beautiful in another dress- my opinion. First glance, wasn’t impressed.

Lilly

No apologies necessary, Christina. It’s your dress, and you look wonderful in it.

erica

Sorry, but not as beautiful as she could have looked. The sleeves are terrible.

I agree with Dawn and Cee cee….Simple, elegant, very stunning. Very beautiful!

Beautiful. It looks like strapless is going out of style. I’m glad because her dress and Kelly Clarkson’s dress were not strapless and were absolutely beautiful. Strapless dresses just all tend to look alike. I love this new trend.

Mia

Lovely congrats to her!

The lace and tulle veil is beautiful.

She looks lovely! I adore that did not choose a strapless gown. Wish that trend would go away. This dress has personality.

I loved the dress but did not really care for the sleeves she looked like a elegant bride

jenny

stunning!! all the best to her.I know she’s quite short but this dress makes her look ten feet tall.. beautifully and well made. bravo

The dress is lovely. And the sleeves are pretty and sophisticated on her. While there are many beautiful dresses in the world so many have the same strapless top it is nice to see something different that is still pretty, feminine, and sexy.

Her boobs are practically down to her waist in that dress, why so droopy at her size and age?

I absolutely love this dress on her and her veil is exquisite. A vintage style sheath dress with a modern twist. Reminds me of the gorgeous styles she wore when the Pan Am show was airing.
